Zero Mostel, his co star and a genuiis in his own right, were hilarious in their chemistry. The producer and star, obliged to discover a scenario that was doomed for misshapen failure and bankruptcy, so they both could get a windfall from their ”Springtime” investors…

Where else on the planet could Gilda Ratner’s Gene Wilder discover his “genie” gone , let out of the
